Researchers say OpenAI revoked their access to limited cyber program

Several security researchers say OpenAI suddenly revoked their access to a limited-access program that removes some restrictions on using its AI tools for cybersecurity research. OpenAI confirmed that the issue was caused by an error.

On Wednesday, multiple researchers on OpenAI’s official support forums and on X reported having their access to the Trusted Access for Cyber (TAC) program revoked. The people said that when they opened ChatGPT’s Cyber page, a message appeared saying their identity could not be verified or that their account “is ineligible at this time.”
